Romeo & Juliet

            In William Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet two worlds are in chaos, two families warring for control of fair Verona. Two lovers, each from different sides of the universe, doomed to die their families to blame for the tragedy.
             Montague and Capulet, too self-absorbed to see the light, drove their children into darkness.
             Montague and Capulet have always fought, since their fathers before them they have always been enemies.
             Verona, the battlefield for an epic battle between two super powers of society. Loyal followers, employees and family members of both sides fighting in the streets.
             One day Prince Esculus, ruler of Verona, had had enough a decreed that "If ever you disturb our streets again your lives shall pay the forfeit of peace." The Prince had hoped that this would solve the problem and it did . for a while. That evening Capulet held a gala ball to which only invited guests could attend. Romeo, son of Montague and his friends Mercutio and Benvolio gatecrashed the party after being bade to come by a servant of Capulet's who could not read. It is at the ball that Romeo meets Juliet. This meeting was short lived when Juliet's cousin Tybalt sees Romeo and reacts very badly. Tybalt goes to his uncle to tell him of the intrusion. The fiery Tybalt wishes to duel with young Romeo but is told not to by his Uncle Capulet who does not wish to startle the guests. Romeo then finds out that his love Juliet is his ultimate enemy's daughter.
             After leaving the fair Juliet at the ball, Romeo, needing to bask in her beauty again, returns to the Capulet's manor to see her again. They meet on the balcony outside of Juliet's room and tell of their love for each other. Juliet tells Romeo that if he really loves her then he should marry her. Romeo agrees to marry her and rushes of to Friar Lawrence to arrange the marriage for the morrow.
             The next afternoon when Juliet goes to the church for confession she finds her beloved Romeo their waiting for her to arrive.
